Abstract: Methods and apparatus to minimize hot/cold page detection overhead on running workloads. A page meta data structure is populated with meta data associated with memory pages in one or more far memory tier. In conjunction with one or more processes accessing memory pages to perform workloads, the page meta data structure is updated to reflect accesses to the memory pages. The page meta data, which reflects the current state of memory, is used to determine which pages are “hot” pages and which pages are “cold” pages, wherein hot pages are memory pages with relatively higher access frequencies and cold pages are memory pages with relatively lower access frequencies. Variations on the approach including filtering meta data updates on pages in memory regions of interest and applying a filter(s) to trigger meta data updates based on (a) condition(s). A callback function may also be triggered to be executed synchronously with memory page accesses.

Abstract: Examples described herein relate to memory thin provisioning in a memory pool of one or more dual in-line memory modules or memory devices. At any instance, any central processing unit (CPU) can request and receive a full virtual allocation of memory in an amount that exceeds the physical memory attached to the CPU (near memory). A remote pool of additional memory can be dynamically utilized to fill the gap between allocated memory and near memory. This remote pool is shared between multiple CPUs, with dynamic assignment and address re-mapping provided for the remote pool. To improve performance, the near memory can be operated as a cache of the pool memory. Inclusive or exclusive content storage configurations can be applied. An inclusive cache configuration can include an entry in a near memory cache also being stored in a memory pool whereas an exclusive cache configuration can provide an entry in either a near memory cache or in a memory pool but not both.
